MomofMany,
I never picked on coal miners. I only mentioned the mine strike because it was that strike that led me to read a little further. I also never talked about degrees being a pre-requisite for a good living or a respectable occupation, did you read my post where I talked about tradesmen? Where I acknowledged the value of apprenticeships? I also said my grandparents raised me, my grandfather retired from the Navy and then drove a propane delivery truck in our rural community for over twenty years, never sat behind a desk in his life. We are quite the blue collar family.
It sounds like you didn't read my posts but made a lot of assumptions.
